This recipe serves 16 – so its the perfect dessert to share with your family and friends this festive season – especially on a hot Christmas day!

Better still it can be whipped up with minimum fuss the day before you need it (just ensure enough time for it to set in the freezer!)

Once you’ve made it once we think it’ll become a go-to recipe for special occasions this Summer  Get creative and try different flavour combinations, different nuts and fruit, even different liquors.  Of course, you can also leave out the liquor altogether for a family friendly option.
